Booking an Appointment
All consultations are by appointment and can be arranged by calling the office during working hours 9.00am to 5.00pm, Monday to Friday, on 01702 586656. Professor O'Brart consults from the London Medical, 49 Marylebone High Street, London, W1U 5HJ.
His consulting days are:
Mondays (pm), Tuesdays (pm), Thursday a.m. and all day Friday at the London Medical.
It is normally necessary, but not essential, for UK patients to be referred by a general practitioner, as the referral letter will usually contain useful information about a patient's health and also, many Health Insurance companies will only honour claims for payment if the initial referral is made by a GP. At the time of making the appointment, if appropriate, please provide all relevant health insurance company details, including membership number and authorisation/claim number.
The First Consultation
At this consultation your past medical history will be recorded and a thorough eye examination will be performed. The examination is painless, so there is nothing to worry about, but it may be lengthy, as it may be necessary to dilate your pupils. As you may experience some temporary blurring of vision following dilation it is advisable to use public transport or taxi. Prior to your consultation it may be necessary to remove your contact lenses for an agreed length of time – this can be discussed when booking your appointment.
You should expect to spend up to an hour at the clinic. Every effort is made to see you as close to your scheduled appointment, however, emergencies do occur and consultations sometimes take longer than expected.
When attending this first consultation please bring your most recently prescribed glasses, any medication you may be taking, your GP's name and address and, if appropriate, your health insurance company details.
Following your consultation, your ocular condition will be discussed with you, as well as the approach to treatment and the results you could expect to achieve.
